Nobody cares about your tricams

I care about your tricams. Don't abuse them.

So your post title is invalid.

Oh Pink's the one I love to place
when I'm alone way up in space
on some exposed and airy face.
They sink where other gear won't go.
When all you've got is manky pro,
This tricam saves your butt from woe.
But it's often hard to get them out;
They make your second moan and shout
And wave his nut tool 'round about
But that's why you're the one on lead
Your problems are a different breed
As long as someone does the deed...
"Oh quit your whimpering," you rumble,
"And get it out or there'll be trouble"
"Get to work now, on the double!"
Although it sometimes takes a while,
They do come out with vim and guile,
(or chiselling and curses vile.)
Pink will do what all the rest.
Won't do when they're put to the test.
Oh pink tricams are just the best!

It's funny Mike, I hear more smack talking from people in alpine than I hear telemarkers telling people they tele.
"Stop suffering bro"
"Just get some AT gear"
"I used to tele until I decide I wanted to ski"

I have a #7 in storage somewhere. Haven't placed it in 10 years.

As a southern climber that is blasphemy! We ought to burn you at the stake.

I don't think you are placing your pinky correctly if your butt hurts.

Please make me this sticker

"Nobody cares that you ride to work in a recumbent bike, still use checks at the grocery store using a quill and ink, love to fly fish in the summer, tele in the winter, climb with tricams, and feel that fixed pitons are more trad than bolts, and make that extra trip to recycle glass bottles even though you have 4 kids and have essentially doubled the population as well as your carbon footprint"

That is blasphemy and you should be ashamed of yourself. Tricams are the bees knees at T-wall and if you don't like it then you can just get out of the south. Harumph!

I love tri-cams. But I am a mix m&ms and skittles to watch the world burn kind of guy. So naturally, wearing this shirt at Twall would bring me much entertainment. With that said, who needs a climbing buddy in the south? Any takers?
